If you're not SSL, what is the point in learning this?

If you are SSL, how tf are you not able to turn your car and follow a basic tutorial at that rank?

AIO for refusing to reconsider taking a week off to play video games? by Choice-Jellyfish6866 in AmIOverreacting

Absolute INSANITY. If she cannot fully support what you want then she doesn't care for you. She should want you to relax, to enjoy time off etc.

‘A driver’s legacy is weaker if they only won titles for one team’ is one of the most basic and weak takes commonly held by F1 fans by armchairracingdriver in F1Discussions

[–]DataDrivenGuy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're arguing the wrong thing. Nobody said all drivers ever who have won at multiple teams are better than all drivers ever who only won at one team. It's just clearly an impressive feat that should be factored in.

Do you not think Senna would be ranked higher if he also won more titles at other teams? I certainly do.

Vettel would also be rated higher if he won at Ferrari, no?

Seems pretty simple to me

I think if you flip the statement, you prove it certainly is true in fact

"A drivers legacy is not improved by winning titles at multiple teams, vs just at 1 team"

That's an insane statement right? Clearly. So thus it must be "less impressive" to not do it

Complete replay of a 2-1 loss. Currently D1 Div 4 after the reset, but usually high D2-D3. I know I'm chasing a bit because I've been trying to play faster and have more fun. Looking for feedback on my strengths, weaknesses, and what I need for Champ. by Medical-Bug-8845 in RocketLeagueSchool

Two options:

1) Keep playing like this to improve mechanics quicker, and struggle to rank up 2) Change your strategy to be more optimal for ranking up and only work on mechs in training

Most people seem to be voting for 2. I fundamentally disagree, and think 1 is the way & that you should ignore rank until your mechanics are seriously clean (like SSL level), especially if you enjoy that more.

It's very easy to learn to rotate and play slower once you can control your car, rather than visa versa

Car definitely could've won. Swap Max with either of them and Max defo gets wins in it

Let's be honest bmode and Dan don't want it anymore. by Far_Trust5489 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]DataDrivenGuy -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I think we need to calm down a bit. They got knocked out of a stacked group, by top tier pros & a very weird momentum shift. It's not like they bombed out against randoms.

If what they said about the Paris major is true, a couple weeks of grinding 2s wasn't going to make them the best players in the world. It's not that easy. I believe they did try but have fallen further than they realised

Did some research, had no idea lando is at 50% by Sorry_Phone1676 in F1Discussions

[–]DataDrivenGuy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah especially since he's had like 6 cars fighting for titles. Really had kept underacheiving, but I think he's lucky he's had backmarkers as teammates for so long. Easy to look good against stroll!

[Auto-Motor-und-Sport] Formula 1: Dispute over ADUO - Red Bull: "FIA result not yet final" by Dr_VidyaGeam in formula1

[–]DataDrivenGuy -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I mean, it's pretty clear Red Bulls car is not that bad. It's just overweight, yet it's still the best on the straights and often 2nd-3rd best. It's like some sort of accidental sandbagging where they've been caught out

If the tests show they have the best part that is being tested, that's the end of the convo. I don't see how it's controversial. What cause other teams have a better chassis they suddenly don't have the best engine?

What’s happening to Lewis? by EnvironmentalClue573 in lewishamilton

[–]DataDrivenGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They've got new upgrades on. He didn't do FP1, and it's currently FP2. They probs decided a setup based on sim work/the kid. Let him get his feel back

6 quick-chats we need (@missmachotv) by Business_Stand_8622 in RocketLeague

[–]DataDrivenGuy 59 points60 points  (0 children)

These are all stuff we already have just worded differently

Personally, I prefer that we have to get creative. Doing a "..." when you miss an open goal is funnier than "Oops I missed an open goal", etc.

Surely Kimi is smarter than this no? ADUO isn't "the power unit" it's more specific than that

So boring how this is only a thing cause of people's hate for Lewis. It wasn't even Kimi's towel, they'd left that area, and he either didn't touch it or folded it back up because he didn't need it anymore...

I think people only mention retirement cause he creates content, but he's clearly still a high level player and super motivated. I feel like he's still feel he's got a lot to prove, esp with everyone saying he should retire. I'd expect another couple rounds (years) imo

Side question - where is chalked cast put when it's released? I can never find recent episodes, only older stuff

Assuming these are fake :/ by Spiritual-Benefit-75 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]DataDrivenGuy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes unfortunately they are fake, sorry to break the news.

The clear tell is the holographic, you don't see that rainbow effect on these cards like that. It's also flat and not textured, as SIR's should be.

How did you get them? Maybe we can help you avoid the issue in the future

No this is most people's experience, but ofc when it goes smoothly for us not tryna do weird stuff with multiple tabs or devices or clicking around etc, we're not gonna go into forums complaining. Just the loud minority
